The Next Big Thing: This Other World

Kay Holt tagged me for this. Not the first time I’ve done this meme, but it’s a good one. I’m interpreting the word ‘book’ loosely, and answering the questions on my novella, This Other World, which will be published tomorrow(!) in the Crossed Genres anthology Winter Well.

What is the working title of your next book?
